FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Can I bleach my dentures?
Do not attempt to use bleach on your dentures as it can permanently damage them, making them brittle and liable to breakage. Not just that, it can ruin their appearance making them look less natural. Avoid using very hot water as well, as this can distort their shape and you may need to have them relined.
Can I sleep in my dentures?
When your dentures are new, we would recommend you wear them to sleep in. This helps your gums to adapt. After a week or two, we suggest removing them at bedtime to allow your gums to be cleansed by the saliva on your tongue.
How long should your dentures last?
5-7 years on average if relined on time.
How long will my mouthguards last?
For adults, a well-maintained mouthguard will generally last 2-3years. We recommend washing it in cold water, storing it in its original packaging and away from direct sunlight.
Children's mouths are constantly changing as they lose teeth and new ones erupt. Ask your dentist to check the mouthguard at your child's regular dental check-up.
Children/Teenagers mouthguard last about 1 year or less depending on how fast they grow

AFTERCARE
How to clean your denture?
To clean your denture, remove it from your mouth and rinse it under warm running water. Gently brush the denture with a soft-bristled denture brush and soap or non abrasive toothpaste, ensuring to clean all surfaces. Soak the denture overnight in a denture cleaning solution or water, rinse thoroughly before use, and clean your mouth, gums or natural teeth before reinserting the denture.
(Note: don't not put a dry denture in your mouth, make sure it is wet with water).
How to apply a denture adhesive agent?
To apply denture adhesive, clean your denture and dry it thoroughly. Apply the adhesive in thin strips or dots on the inside of the denture surface. Insert the denture into your mouth, pressing firmly and holding in place for 1 minute to ensure a secure fit.
(Note: if you apply too much you will taste it, that means put less next time).
How to treat blisters caused by dentures?
Take your denture out of your mouth. Make yourself a cup of warm water and salt (1 teaspoon is enough). Rinse your mouth with the warm water and salt till the cup is finished. Repeat this twice a day till your blister is gone. (Note: it is important to make sure your denture has been adjusted and fits properly, otherwise the blister will keep returning).
Your dentures can also be machine cleaned by DK Dental Studio. We recommend this every 6 months or if your dentures have significant build up or staining.
